Hi all,
I have an auto D40 with 140k.
Only mods that I know of (only owned the truck for a month or so)
are canopy, on board diesel/water seperating filter, oil catch can.
Nil towing, around town kms I'm only getting 14.4L/100
I'm pretty disappointed with this really, considering I get this out of my Mazda CX9 which are renowned for being thirsty as f$#k. I used to get that out of a vxss 5.7 gen 3 also.
The thermos seem to run too often in my opinion.
Would anyone out there have any suggestions of things to check out in order to improve the mileage?
Or is this considered normal?
I'm starting to think I should have just gone with the 6cyl option!
Could a dirty EGR cause this issue?
Thanks for any help in advance
